    I really wanted to try this spot ever since they opened. Its super cute and has a great location. I found the service ok and the food also ok. With the price being up there it didnt really seem worth it. For the same type of food and hookah, you are better off going to the mayors house. Its not far away and way better. They had a lot of servers walking around but it was still difficult to get what you needed/their attention. I most likely wont return.

    We went super early on a Wednesday. Usually when you go to the restaurant off time you get mediocre service. NOT HERE . They were so welcoming and took amazing care of us. We got the pistachio martini and the coffee martini to start. Then apps were the beet puree, the spicy hummus and the seafood salad. While all were tasty, our fave was the hummus. For entrees we got the lamb chops and the black pepper shrimp: Again all were amazing but we really enjoyed the black pepper shrimp Good wine list Charming atmosphere & a nice patio DEFINITELY worth a stop when you come to Bishop Arts

    Oh my gosh literally yum. I forgot this thing I had gotten but it was a goulash kind of dish. The service is impecccable, and the DECORRRR!! I loved everything about this place!

    Really liked having a late lunch early dinner here on a Saturday. We sat outside and enjoyed music from nearby eateries and people watching. The bartender made a nice mocktail and the price was actually reasonable ($7). I had the octopus first and it was Delicious! So moist and flavorful. I loved the octopus so much that I ordered the orzo (because it had octopus in it) and it was also great. I look forward to trying more menu items. My only negative is towards the end the waiter kind of disappeared for a bit and it took a while to get a check (this wasnt too big of an issue considering we were having a leisurely day but could be a problem for otherss).

    Loved this place, great ambiance and decor, service is super friendly and helpful! They do have extensive menu and a lot of fish dishes! They serve complimentary bread and olives before your dining. Food is delicious, drinks are great as well! They do have outside patio seating as well as inside. I definitely recommend trying this place

    Decor inside.

    This place is absolutely delicious. The service is impeccable. The drinks are super creative and yummy. I'm so excited to have such an amazing Greek restaurant in Bishop Arts. The atmosphere is laid back yet fun. Great Energy over all. I can't wait to go back.

    A Mediterranean Gem!…read more This Greek bistro is absolutely adorable--elevated yet cozy with major island vibes. The interior is stunning: chic modern décor, plush velvet chairs, and a glowing bar that looks straight out of a design magazine. I honestly wanted to move in. The food? Fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish tasted like it was made with love and straight-from-the-garden ingredients. You can taste the difference. It's not just a meal--it's an experience. And the music? Obsessed. They play remixed, reimagined pop hits that somehow feel nostalgic and fresh. It adds the perfect upbeat backdrop to the whole vibe. Service was just as lovely--friendly, attentive, and welcoming without being overbearing. Whether you're meeting friends for drinks or settling in for a date night, this place hits all the right notes. Definitely a new favorite!

The pink dining room in the back is adorable and Instagram-worthy, and the patio feels like you've been transported to the Mediterranean. Unfortunately, the service and food didn't live up to the setting. We arrived right at 5 PM and had even called ahead to confirm the happy hour menu. When we got there, we were told the menu had changed. Fine, we adjusted and placed our order at 5:30. By 6 PM, only half of it had arrived, and when we asked about the missing items, they wouldn't honor the happy hour pricing even though this was the first thing we ordered when we arrived. The meatballs were what we were most excited to try, but after waiting 40 minutes (with all of our other food already out), they still hadn't arrived. On top of that, our drinks took over 30 minutes and multiple reminders to finally show up. The happy hour deals for drinks were great, drinks were 1/2 off and they do $5 Lalo tequila. Maybe it was just an off day, but between the slow service, missing items, and mixed-up pricing, the experience was pretty disappointing - especially considering how beautiful the space is.

The grilled chicken plate is my go-to -- tender, seasoned perfectly, and paired with the softest, fluffiest rice. Their vegetables taste like they came straight out of someone's home kitchen, not a restaurant kitchen. But let me tell you: the bread here is unbelievable. Warm, buttery, soft... it tastes like it's baked with love. They should honestly charge extra for it, but they don't. The Turkish tea is another comfort -- simple, hot, soothing. You sit there sipping it and you forget you're right next to one of Dallas' busiest stretches of road. The servers here? Handsome, kind, and attentive without hovering. They make the experience feel even lighter and more enjoyable. Ephesus is the type of place you come to when you need nourishment -- real nourishment -- and a break from the chaos of the city. Great prices, great portions, great energy. It's one of the best Mediterranean restaurants in Dallas, easily.

Given it was 12:30pm we were happy to see this place was quite full but still had a table for the 2 of us inside. There is a terrace which might be an option for our next visit. Yea you read that right, we will definitely be back. For lunch we ordered the octopus appetizer which was nice a tender, perfectly grilled and simply served with the most perfect vinaigrette. Nothing more than a little squeeze of lemon over it and you could have brought me a dozen more. But we had to save room for our mains. I chose the gyros salad and my wife the baked haddock with Greek potatoes and string beans. Both dishes were perfect. Not too fancy and just what the doctor ordered.

The music is nice and you can tell they really focus on creating a beautiful Mediterranean experience. The food is completely incredible and very unique. This is not your average Greek pita place.

It's pricey for an appetizer, but it is definitely worth it because it's so unique and flavorful. It was probably my favorite thing that we ate. Everything felt just a little bit overpriced for what it is. My baseline comparison is Hillstones and R&D, and this is definitely Hillstone's pricing, but not the same experience overall. My wife and I shared the lamb shank and the falafel platter and also had a side of cauliflower (which was incredible). My 3 year old had the kids item which was $18!?. it was all very very good. My wife and I had a glass of wine and the average price was $18. They also had no descriptions of what style of wine it was e.g. Cabernet Sauvignon. When I asked the server, he just recommended the Caymus. The service was transactional and something you would get at most fast casual restaurants. I get that a lot of the servers are not professional servers. For the mezze platter, it would've been helpful to have an explanation of what was on it. Basically they brought the food. They took our order and that was it. Parents: they have one kids meal which included four chicken kebabs and a side of either rice or fries ($18). The price felt very steep for a kids meal. I probably would rather have had half the portion size for half the price.
